1. Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Add the tomatillos and simmer, uncovered, for 12-15 minutes.
2. Drain the tomatillos, reserving ¼ cup of the liquid.
3. In a blender, puree the tomatillos, serrano and chipotle peppers, garlic, and cilantro. Then, add the reserved tomatillo cooking liquid, if needed to get a saucier texture.
4. Transfer the salsa verde to a bowl and add salt and black pepper to taste.
5. This green salsa can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and can also be frozen.
